public Class ManifestConstants

List of modules that this module depends on.

Maven's hk2-module packaging uses dependency list in POM to fill in this entry.

hk2-module packaging type uses GROUPID.ARTIFACTID for this.

Bundle Version

List of other jar files in this module.

This identifies other jar files in this module, not other modules that this module depends on.

The value is a whitespace separated list of Maven ID of all the dependencies, which is of the form "GROUPID:ARTIFACTID:TYPE[:CLASSIFIER]:VERSION".

CLASS_PATH

The value is the fully-qualified class name of a class that implements ImportPolicy.

Maven's hk2-module packaging automatically finds such a class and puts its name, provided that the class has @Service annotation.

Maven's hk2-module packaging automatically finds such a class and puts its name, provided that the class has @Service annotation.

Exported package list.

The value is a comma separated list of packages that are visible to other modules that depend on this module. For example, "com.sun.foobar.spi,com.sun.foobar.abc"

If this manifest entry doesn't exist, all classes will be exported.
